New York, a state as colorful and lively as a well-used paint palette, sparkles on the canvas of the United States. It's not just skyscrapers and hot dog stands - it has a heart full of nature, with green mountains and glittering lakes, where the deer and the chipmunks play hide and seek. And, the kids in New York, oh boy! They're artists with the spirit of Picasso and creativity of Van Gogh, and a dash of New York energy. Right in the middle of all this hustle and bustle, you'll find a hoppity-skippity fellow named Doodle the Art Squirrel. Doodle, with his vibrant tail that changes colors like a chameleon, is the creative guide for our young New Yorker artists. Sporting a beret and a twirly mustache, he hops from tree to tree, rooftop to rooftop, carrying his bag of magic art supplies. He visits kids who love to dabble in art and crafts, helping them create masterpieces beyond their wildest dreams. He adds a touch of color here, a sprinkle of glitter there, and voila! Each craft is a unique creation. Doodle is also known for his comic antics that make every art session as fun as a roller coaster ride. He might accidentally dip his tail in the paint and end up creating an abstract art piece on the floor, or maybe he'll glue googly eyes on his beret without realizing. Oh, the laughter and the fun these New York kids have with Doodle! They play, they paint, they explore, and their imaginations run wilder than a New York minute. Their artwork is as vibrant and diverse as the state they live in - a splatter of colors and a splash of joy.

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.

At Adirondack Camp, your child can feel free to explore, take risks, and be themselves. Our safe and supportive environment ensures that your child can relax in the knowledge that they are secure and protected. Bunk life, mealtime, and camping sleepovers are just a few of the special moments that will create lasting memories for your child. Our camp culture is focused on providing a respite from the everyday stresses of life, so your child can make the most of every moment. At Adirondack Camp, we believe that the in-between moments are just as important as the big ones. We strive to create a summer experience that your child will never forget.
